Morning news and notes for Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2020

First, some roster news:

• Gavin Lux was added to the Dodgers’ roster for the LDS

• Mike Clevinger was added to San Diego’s after missing the Wild Card series due to injury. More on this in a minute.

Braves 9, Marlins 5

• Miami had a 4 to 1 lead, but 6 Atlanta runs in the 7th was too much for the Fishies to compete with

Astros 5, Athletics 2

The garbage cans are working for the Astros in Dodger Stadium again.

Rays 7, Yankees 5

Giancarlo Stanton hit a 3-run homer to Idaho, but that wasn’t enough for the Yankees in this one. Poor Yankees.

Dodgers 5, Padres 1

• The preview said Mike Clevinger vs. Dwayne Walker-Buehler, but the two of them combined to pitch just 5 innings. Clevinger left after two pitches in the 2nd, because his velocity dropped.

• Ryan Weathers, a 20-year-old San Diego reliever, became the 2nd pitcher in MLB history to make his debut in the postseason.

• An Eric Hosmer error opened the floodgates for Dodger BABiP. You love to see it.
